On the surface of Hueco Mundo, tornadoes and sandstorms form over the barren land. A voice takes over. "Man... This large scarf is cool and all, but man it's uncomfortable sometimes." Guerra is alone in the desert, he tasked himself to go on a scouting mission alone. "I should be used to it at this point. Though, I'm starting to regret this and I should've just had my subordinates do it. But I want to witness Barragan's army first-hand." Guerra walks aimlessly in the white desert while also retracing his steps from his early exploration to find Las Noches. "Hmmmm. That dead tree looks familiar... Oh yeah! I remember now! That's the spot I rested on for a minute and headed North." As he was about to head north, a small sized hollow emerged from the sand and began throwing rocks at him. The hollow hit Guerra's head and he immediately turned to the hollow. "Hey! What's your problem?!" The hollow ignored his words and began running to a different spot until he tumbled embarrassingly, then continued running all the while Guerra watches all of this unfold with a blank expression on his face. The hollow camouflaged itself in the sand, blending in with the environment. "I can... See you, you know." The hollow simply threw a rock at him in frustration. Guerra used his sonido to close the distance between the both of them and grabbed and carried the hollow as if it was a dog. The hollow struggled as much as it could but couldn't break free. "You're a pretty cute looking hollow you know? What're you doing here?" The hollow angrily screams out. "Don't underestimate me! I'm an adjuchas!!! Now let me go!!! I'll kill you for the sake of the God King, Barragan!!!!" Guerra analyzed the hollow with his pesquisa and realized that he's actually an adjucha class hollow. "You seem to be telling the truth, but I just can't believe you're an adjucha class. You're coming with me, mainly because you're too cute to let go." Guerra wrapped the adjuchas around his scarf and made a makeshift baby carrier on his chest.
The two journeyed throughout Hueco Mundo without facing any problems and enemies along their path. Guerra continued to look annoyed as the adjuchas continues to struggle non-stop. "Hey, can you stop struggling? You've been doing that for a while and it's really annoying." "Anytime now! You're gonna be so tired of me that you're gonna let me go!" Guerra sighs and speaks out with an annoyed tone. "Why are you so loyal to Barragan? He seems like the type of guy to not give a damn about his own people. Do you have something to prove to him?" Silence took over the atmosphere and was broken with a "I don't have to say anything to you." Guerra sighed and said afterwards: "Alright, I'll quit pushing. But... Can you... Tell me your name?" She contemplated for a while and said. "Xiomara Allenstein." "That's a nice name... Hope we can know more about each other." "Just shut up."
Eventually, they arrived at Las Noches. Guerra comments on it. "I didn't take time to admire the building back then. Now getting another chance it looks so amazing! The structure is just so unique! The roofs, the walls, everything! It's sad that someday my army is going to destroy this whole thing. Xiomara raised an eyebrow. "Destroy? Wait... are you that Emperor that's been spreading around Hueco Mundo?" Guerra confidently stated with a proud tone "Yep! The one and only!" It was quiet and silent until Guerra had an idea. "Hey, I've been thinking about for a while. How about you join my Empire? I'll secure you a spot as high ranking officer." Suddenly, Xiomara screamed very loudly to alert the nearby guards of Las Noches. Guerra immediately covered her mouth. "What was that for???" Guerra felt a blade was driven up his back, he clenched his teeth and widened his eyes, he turns to look at an arrancar. A white skinned man with white curly hair. Guerra felt weird, the man's spiritual pressure was like nothing he ever encountered, it wasn't strong to the point where it would make him collapse. It was simply, eerie. "Guerra Nachtblut... My guess is that you didn't intend on getting caught or seen. Unfortunate, I will lead you to Barragan where you will finally face off with him as he wishes." Xiomara manages to escape the makeshift baby carrier and began to follow the arrancar who is taking Guerra to Barragan.
In Barragan's throne room, the moon shines in the open top roof towards Barragan in his throne that's two meters above the floor. There, he had his arm supporting his head while the other bears a large double-headed axe. The large door suddenly opened loudly. The arrancar is walking towards Barragan while harshly escorting Guerra to him. "Guerra Nachtblut! You have finally come back! Our fight was left unfinished, perhaps ants naturally get scared when facing against stronger opponents! HahahahaHA!" Xiomara immediately comes forward then kneels and bows to Barragan. "G-God King! I risked myself and found the enemy you dearly wished to fight!" Barragan stood up from his throne and slowly began walking down and appeared in front of Xiomara. "You have done well. Now get out of my sight, ant." Xiomara looked up with disappointment in her heart or lack there of. She mutters. "What?" Barragan grew annoyed of Xiomara almost immediately and started to yell. "ARE YOU, AN ANT, DEAF?! MOVE! YOU MEAN ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO ME!! I DONT CARE IF YOU DIE!! YOU ARE NOTHING BUT A SPEC IN MY PRESENCE!!!" Barragan flings Xiamora out of his way using the side of his battle axe. The arrancar lets go of Guerra and stands in the sides. Guerra grabs his zanpakuto and calls out Ushinawareta kōtei. The two glared at each other fiercely, readying for a battle.
